Killed by n Reporter.

LEXINGTON, November TO- Thomas
Green, Of Maysville, ard Lew Baldwin,
of Nicholsville, met in this city this morn
ing at half-psst II O'Clock, and Green
killed Baldwin In a shooting affray.
Green is correspondent of the Cincin.
natl Commercial-Gszette and some
months ago wrote communications con-
cerning the conduct of the election in Jee.
samine county, charging Baldwin and
others with certain unlawful acts in the
conduct o! the election. The poll books
OF two precincts In Jessamine county
were stolen. This, among other things,
was charged In Green's correspondence.
To this Baldwin replied ,denouncing Green
in the strongest language.
When they met In front of the Phoenix
Hotel, at II 30 the quarrel WAS opened
and Baldwin denounced Green, calling
him all the offensive names at his com
mand Green bsing somewhat deaf either
could not hear or did not choose TO resent
and finally Baldwin drew his pistel, ,strik.
ing Green on the head and afterwards fir
ing, but missing. Green then drew and
fired, two of his shots striking Baldwin
IN the left shoulder, one of them ranging
down and cutting the aorta,
Baldwin fred several shots, one OF
which slightly cut Green on the left side
and then tell dead. Green was carried to
room in the hotel and his wounds were
found to be trifing. A large number OF
the friends of each are here and many
threats are indulged in, 40 that more
trouble may be expected.

THE POLICE
The Leftvvifch.Van Vert MILL Only
Lasts One Round.

The pugilistic craze seems to have ex-
tended to the legal fraternity. Yesterday
morning Thomas j. Leftwitch and Charles
Van Vert appeared as the opposing coun-
sci in suit at the municipal court. At the
conclusion they got into wrangle about
the taxing up of the costs of the case,
amounting to 1926. Van Vert said it
was dead steal" and Leftwitch struck
him in the face and an exciting engagement
followed. Both contestants were well
matched as to height. Leftwitch having
an advantage in weight which was bal
anced by Van Wert's superior agility.
First Round-Leftwitch LED with his right,
getting in on Van ert's face, who countered
heavily on Leftwitchs neck in return. Sharp
in fighting followed, when Van Vert rushed
Leftwitch to the ropes, or rather against the
pile OF boxes, and got in a straight-amed blow
on the latter's mug. AT this point time was
called by Deputy Clerk Robertson, who had
mounted the counter and was alternately
shrieking ''break away and ''police." At this
point the police, in the person of Sergt. Null
lin, interfered and put a stop to the brutal
affair. Time, 80 seconds.
Spectators to the fight differ as to who
was bested. Van Werts friends claim that
he had the advantage as far as the contest
went, while Leftwitch's adherents say he
was harboring his strength and allowing
Van Vert to wind himself. The outcome
as not settled the question of the superb
rity of the pugiliSts, and another match is
alked of.

wanted to Poison Her.
Before Judge Lochren yesterday morning
was tried one of the most peculiar cases
that has ever come under the jurisdiction
of the district court 1t was the suit of
Thomas Burke against Hannah Burke, in
which the plaintiff wanted the court to is
sue an order forever barring the defendant
from any right or title to lot 1, block S. in
MurphyS addition to Minneapolis. for the
reason that she deserted him in July,
1885, and has since refused to
live with him. Mr.. and Mrs Burke were
married in Minneapolis June II, 1884, and
have one child, a daugter some 10 months
OF age. On the trial it was developed that
shortly before Mrs. Burke's child was born
she was suddenly taken sick and sent her
husband for her sister. He at once left the
house to do her errand and Oh returning
with her sister found his wife just leaving
the house. with only the bed clothes
wrapped around her. She was very much
agltated and in answer to the questions put
to her accused her husband of trying to
poison her. She was taken back to bed
and physician called. He found her
suffering from temporary insanity and adj
Vised the husband to go away for few
days until his wife should recover. AS
soon as Mrs. Burke could leave the house
she went to her sisters house, where she
still insisted that her husband was trying to
poison her. Her sister seemed to share the
same opinion and the gulf between husband
and wife grew wider and wider. Mr.
Burke says that he has asked his wife to
return to his home. but that she has refused
to do so. This Mrs. Burke denies, and says
that she is ready 10 return and live with
him. Judge LocIlren, in hearing the case,
said that it seemed to him that mistake
had been made all around, and that he felt
sure that when both parties came to con-
slider what they were doing they would
drop proceedings and once more resume
their happy relations. 1t was impossible
for him, he said. to grant the order debar-
ring Mrs. Burke from an interest in the
real estate, unless Mr.. Burke could show
conclusively that his wife had positively
refused to live with him again.
